In his own paintings and drawings, he was exploring the relationships between the concepts of Cubism, Abstract Expressionism, "Action" Painting and Jazz theory inspired by the music of John Coltrane, Ornette Coleman's "Harmolodics", European Free Improvised Music among others. Bart was curious to see if improvising painters could connect emotionally, intellectually and artistically in the moment with musicians on stage. And would the musicians respond in kind. The answer was an emphatic YES! It was at this time that Bart was fortunate to come under the mentorship of drummer Alvin Fielder, a founding member of the Association for the Advancement of Creative Musicians (https://www.aacmchicago.org/). With Alvin's help, Bart began to produce interdisciplinary performances with the likes of Edward "Kidd" Jordan, Joel Futterman, Davey Williams, Dave Dove, Assif Tsahar and Susie Ibarra. --------------------- Misha Feigin was born and raised in Moscow and known as one of Russia’s premier guitarists.

As a biracial Thai American with musical families on both sides of the world, he has been navigating musical code switching and bimusicality for much of his life and uses that experience to inform his understanding of how music ecosystems interact, hybridize, and create systems of exclusion. https://www.silpayamanant.com/ ------------------------- Luis De Léon studied elementary school in Guatemala and Mexico. In high school, he took some drawing classes, then moved to Guatemala City to study Communication Sciences at Rafael Landívar University. During this time, he took drawing classes with an artist collective in Cerrito del Carmen. His drawings reflect his search for his own style. His strokes are influenced by Shel Silverstein, Martin Prechtel, and Tim Burton. With his drawings, Luis aims to offer a moment of reflection and provoke more than a few laughs in the viewer. Luis changed his perspective on the world after starting to draw; he finds shapes in things and carries a camera with him to capture images and turn them into drawings. In addition to playing with Appalatin, Luis is also a member of Hot Coffee Breakdown, Yapa, Tristen Brooke, Joann Bellanova, and Nick Teale. Whether he's waiting for soundchecks or traveling, he takes advantage of the opportunity to paint and capture those moments. https://luisdeleonsite.com/ https://www.facebook.com/LuisDeLeonArt - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/louisville/creative-mayhem-summit-18-musical-visual-improvised-performance/200029714759351 - **Event Categories**: Art, fine-arts, Music, Entertainment, Business, Workshops, literary-art, Concerts, Festivals, Nonprofit, Kids - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details ## Event venue details - **city**: Louisville - **state**: KY - **country**: United States - **location**: 1206 Belmar Drive, Louisville, KY, United States, Kentucky 40214 - **lat**: 38.19469 - **long**: -85.72897 - **full address**: 1206 Belmar Drive, Louisville, KY, United States, Kentucky 40214 ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: CREATIVE MAYHEM SUMMIT #18: Musical/Visual Improvised performance - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events5/banners/0212da2a3d531605ea0c955da07aad61369abd477c56b4f7961a36ab22273d15-rimg-w1200-h628-dc5f7b8c-gmir?v=1771796930 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is CREATIVE MAYHEM SUMMIT #18: Musical/Visual Improvised performance being held? - **A:** CREATIVE MAYHEM SUMMIT #18: Musical/Visual Improvised performance takes place on Sat, 28 Feb, 2026 at 04:00 pm to Sat, 28 Feb, 2026 at 06:00 pm at 1206 Belmar Drive, Louisville, KY, United States, Kentucky 40214. - **Q**: Who is organizing CREATIVE MAYHEM SUMMIT #18: Musical/Visual Improvised performance? - **A:** CREATIVE MAYHEM SUMMIT #18: Musical/Visual Improvised performance is organized by Bart Galloway Music & Art. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
